Need the configuration software for SLC 5/03 from AB as I have to execute a project and would like to train myself and the team before purchasing. From where can I download it. Pls Help!!
If it's already a given that you will be purchasing and using this package for a project, why must you obtain a copy and train yourself and your team before purchasing the software? However, if for whatever reason this is
absolutely necessary, Allen Bradley distributors obviously offer some of the most effective training available.
Hope this helps,

This program is copyright protected software and there are no downloads for it.
You can contact your local distributor for Allen Bradley and askthem to demonstrate the software. The good ones will sometimes offer a 1 day training course that will allow some exposure to it. Any other method is illegal.
Email me directly for any questions you might need help with.
Most Allen Bradley agents offer the software for sale. Since you have to purchase the software to complete the project it would prove prudent to purchase it so that you can learn.
You wouldn't want to be in breach of copyright would you?
You can download software from WWW.ab.com/automation, but u can not run it as it requires the activation key. U have to purchase this software from any distributor.
have you already checked with your Allen-Bradley distributor? if they know that you're committed to making a future purchase of hardware and software for your upcoming project, they might be able to arrange a temporary "loaner" package for you to experiment with...
The 5/03 is a very old, and (especially outside the usa) over-priced plc, If it is a new project I would certainly look at the host of newer products available, the mini PLCs from telemecanique(TWIDO) or Siemens(S7-200) will do much more than the SLC, cheaper with inexpensive (no dongle or key disc) programming software. (Siemens s7micro has a downloadable 30 day trial license.)
